Nike Officially Debuts the Air Max 270

Thanks to a surfeit of online leaks -- including detailed images of an upcoming triple-black colorway -- we're already plenty familiar with the new Air Max 270, even though it's only now that Nike is throwing the shoe its official coming-out party. What makes the Air Max 270 unique is that it's the Swoosh's first ever lifestyle Air shoe, featuring a design that combines dual inspirations from the Air Max 180 and Air Max 93. The shoe's name comes, in fact, from the Air Max 93, which featured 270 degrees of visibility in the unique Air unit, measuring 32 millimeters high to make it the tallest ever Max Air heel unit. Expect the Nike Air Max 270 to launch through Nike's SNKRS app on February 1st.
